I just traded for a 1963 Dodge 3/4 ton step side.....its has 8 lug 17.5x5 in wheels with 40 year old biased ply tires....I need to drive this thing 300 miles....
1st question what wheels (bolt pattern) can I put on this thing to get it home?
2nd question what would be the easiest route of swapping the fronts to a regular mopar 5x4.5? is there a brake kit that anyone knows of? for the rear I will just swap the whole axle assembly...I think that should do it for the rear....I want to keep the straight axle up front.
Also Side note....I know its not a 6ft bed but its doesn't look like an 8 footer either....what the heck is it?
